Osteoallograft® Orthomix®

Osteoallograft® is the tried and true solution for natural bone healing and the BENCHMARK against which the performance of all other bone graft materials is measured.

Osteoallograft® Orthomix® is natural, real bone graft designed specifically for veterinary use. It consists of osteoinductive Demineralized Bone Matrix (DBM) and osteoconductive cancellous bone chips. The demineralization of graft allows for immediate access to the growth factors (BMPs) inherent in allograft bone when it is placed into the surgery site. This results in an early beginning of the healing process and helps to make allograft as effective as autograft.

Using bone allograft allows you to:

Avoid harvesting autograft; saving time and morbidity risk.

Increase the growth factors locally to facilitate bony healing. Particulate bone graft provides enormously more surface area with exposed BMP’s than the patient’s own fracture, arthrodesis or osteotomy site; resulting in an increase in exposure to growth factors inherent in the bone graft.

Achieve faster and stronger bone healing compared with using bone substitutes, because it provides both an osteoconductive scaffold and also osteoinductive growth factors (BMPs).1-5 No other bone graft substitute available on the market provides BOTH critical factors for speedy bone healing.

Indications

Use Osteoallograft® Orthomix® for:

Fracture repair

Mal- or non-union cases

Arthrodesis procedures

Bone loss

TTAs and TPLOs 2,5

Any other application where bone graft is needed

Veterinarian and Patient Benefits

Why graft:

Bone will heal faster when voids are filled with bone graft, because it provides osteoconductive scaffold for host bone to grow on and native, osteoinductive BMPs that attract osteoblasts to the site. Even when there are no voids, bone graft provides these same advantages. 2,6,7

Faster healing not only gets your patients back to normal activity faster it also increases the chances of a successful healing outcome 2,6,7

Why use allograft:

Reduces your OR time and cost, because it allows you to skip autograft harvesting 8

Eliminates morbidity risks associated with the collection of bone autograft. Studies show a morbidity rate of over 25% in humans 9

In many cases, allows you to use more bone graft than you can procure from the patient. Allograft can also be used to augment insufficient quantities of autograft.

Studies show that allografts are as effective as autograft in bone healing 2-4
